    Lemon Tree by Fools´Garden





           Listen to the song and complete the missing words:

         
    Fool's Garden - Lemon Tree .mp3




    I'  (sit) here
    in the boring room
    It's just another 
    Sunday afternoon
    I'
      (waste) my time

    I got nothing to do
    I'
     
    (hang) around

    I'  (wait) for you
    But nothing ever happens -

    and I wonder

    I' 
    around in my car
    I'
    too fast

    I'm driving too far
    I'd like to change my point of view
    I feel so lonely

    I'  (wait) for you              
    But nothing ever happens -
    and I wonder

    Chorus

    I wonder  I wonder why
    Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    And all that I can see is just a yellow Lemon tree
    I'   ( turn) my head up and down
    I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
    And all that I can see is just another Lemon tree


    I' ( sit) here

    I miss the power
    I'd like to go out taking a
    But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
    I feel so  put myself into bed
    Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder

    Isolation- is not good for me
    Isolation- I don't want to sit on a lemon tree
    I'  (step)
    around in the dessert of joy
    Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
    And  will happen - and you'll wonder

    Chorus
    And I wonder wonder
    I wonder  I wonder why
    Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    And all that I can see (x4)
    is just another yellow Lemon tree
